harmonic {TSA}R Documentation

Construct harmonic functions for fitting harmonic trend model

Description

The function creates a matrix of the first m pairs of harmonic functions for fitting a harmonic trend (cosine-sine trend, Fourier regresssion) models with the response being x, a time series.

Usage

harmonic(x, m = 1)

Arguments

x

a time series

m

the number of pairs of harmonic functions to be created; 2m must be less than or equal to the frequency of x

Value

a matrix consisting of \cos(2k \pi t), \sin(2k \pi t), k=1,2,...,m, excluding any zero functions.
